The article is devoted to the study of the features of the manifestation of communicative memory based on the analysis of the content and implementation of the speech situation in historical narratives in the interviews of residents of Kentau and Ashysai in 2015-2019. Through the cognitive-communicative concept of mnemonic activity by Doctor of Filology Science Tivyaeva I.V. the author examines the features of the verbal coding of memory processes in the natural language of the respondents of three generations (conditionally divided by the author according to different historical periods in which the respondents' primary socialization took place): 1) those born in the 1920s-1930s; 2) those born in the 1940-1950s; 3) born in the 1960s. The purpose of the publication is to identify the discursive content of the memories of the residents of a monotown about their lives in the context of general historical events of the 20th century and the cultural code in the informational narrative of their interviews, the difference or similarity of the perception of their past by different generations. The character of identity in the memories of the Kentau-Ashhysai population is determined through such markers as the language of communication, cultural codes, and the emotional state of the respondents.
